Which silver tube should I buy.

[Pandanimal]

I have decided to buy an Impress beadliner.
Is this the right silver tube to get for lining big hole beads?

Or should I get a smaller size?

Is there anything else I need to buy whilst I'm thinking about silver linning beads?
And, does anyone know of a copper tube supplier for beads?

Copper, I haven't found one yet.  I have been looking as pumbing supplies.  Note though that 5mm is a very unusual size for copper pipe and with cost you two thirds to the same again.  I rang up one suppliers who said that they would email me with the details, they didn't and withdrew the product a few days later - humph!

6mm microbore copper tubing looks about right for coring with copper. Its available in Wickes and places like that, comes in a roll so might be worth looking on ebay for shorter lengths.

This etsy seller sells perfect silver and copper tubing, but she's away for a couple more days yet.

Personally, I think that .7mm wall is too thick. You can get thinner wall tube from Rashbells even though it's not on their site, just ring them to see what they have.

Thanks every one. I will have to see what I can find then

Cooksons don't seem to have any other tubing that would fit on a pandora system as far as I can see.
I will have to try rashbells then.
The stuff on etsy looks good but would I have to pay import duty on it comming from the states?

I don't remember paying any duty, its a small transaction.
